Gerle János: Palaces of Money - Our Budapest (Budapest, 1994)

within, which diversity manifests itself in the way the stairways, the foyer and the cashier’s hall are laid out. (Vilmos Magyar)

Parts of the interior design with the surviving ornaments are accessible to the general public, and therefore we can form a picture of the wealth of a bank interior. Today the building houses the Budapest Stock Exchange (reconstructed to plans by Antal Lázár), which originaiiy reopened elsewhere five years ago, and Budapest Bank.
